How ironic that 21 years after the CP tracks were removed from Caroline Street, new tracks for ION were installed.

And south of William, they are on almost the exact alignment. North of William I believe CP ran closer to the middle/east side of the street.

Also, the last CP artifact was not removed until ION construction. There was a signal box on a railway pole (not an electricity pole or streetlight pole) on the east side of Caroline just north of William which remained until they dug up the street to built the LRT.
